Gelli plate prints are basically a monoprint that can also be altered with collage materials or incorporated into collages. Ungraded and “free form,” our object is to explore and experiment, not necessarily to have finished product— but you never know! Most will leave with 6-7 pieces.
A brief introduction-with examples & a demonstration will start at 10:30 & then we will go at it till lunch. After lunch (please brown bag or order out), and things dry, we will share in the group what we have done . Then we’ll start experimenting with how to expand and enhance those images.
Wear clothes you can “play dirty” in. If you don’t want dirty hands , bring gloves. Please bring some alcohol based baby wipes to clean the plates between images- and your hands, and waxed paper so work can be stacked gently to take home.
This class is Saturday, March 26, 2022, 10:30 am-3:30pm and the cost is $45, most materials are supplied. Age 16 and up. Minimum 3 maximum 6.
